Which side of the plane to sit from Queen Alia International Airport (Amman) to Tunis Carthage International Airport (Tunis)?

The Dead Sea
Immediately after takeoff, witness the turquoise waters and white salt formations of the lowest point on Earth.
Negev & Sinai Deserts
Aerial views of the rugged, reddish-brown mountain ranges and deep wadis of the southern Levant and Egypt.
Suez Canal Entrance
On clear days, catch a glimpse of the northern entrance to the Suez Canal and ships queuing in the Mediterranean.
Cyrenaica Coastline
The striking contrast where the golden sands of Libya meet the deep azure of the Mediterranean Sea.
Cape Bon Peninsula
The final landmark before landing, showing the lush agricultural tip of northeastern Tunisia.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Dead Sea shortly after departure from Amman. Since this flight travels West, a morning departure is ideal as the sun will be behind you, illuminating the Sinai desert and African coast without glare. During winter months, the clarity over the desert is often superior, allowing for views deep into the Egyptian interior.

Amman Cityscape
A view of the sprawling 'White City' built across several hills as the aircraft gains altitude.
Tel Aviv & Mediterranean Coast
The dense urban sprawl and high-rises along the Israeli shoreline visible as the flight leaves the coast.
Distant Crete
Depending on the northern reach of the flight path, the snow-capped Lefka Ori mountains of Crete may appear on the horizon.
Ancient Carthage
As the plane descends into Tunis, look for the circular Punic Ports and the ruins of the Roman thermal baths.
Gulf of Tunis
The vibrant blue waters of the bay and the busy port of La Goulette just before touchdown.
The right side is excellent for coastal urban views early in the flight. If you are flying in the late afternoon or evening, sit here to catch a spectacular sunset over the Mediterranean as you approach the Tunisian coast. For the best views of the Carthage ruins on approach, try to secure a seat in front of the wing to avoid engine heat haze.
